In other King Crimson news, a documentary on the legendary progressive rock band is set to premiere at this year’s SXSW in March. The feature is directed by Toby Amies.
“We have been approached by various broadcasters, but felt that the ‘standard talking head’ format was becoming increasingly cookie cutter and uncreative,” King Crimson manager David Singleton told Rolling Stone in a statement.
“We therefore approached Toby Amies, an independent filmmaker, and asked him to make an original music documentary, to reimagine the format, and gave him complete creative freedom to do so. So the film is really sanctioned by the band only in as much as they set the ball rolling and gave Toby the access and interviews he requested. Thereafter they happily ceded all creative control.”
